Found some big blocks of buckeye burl today at a woodworking store. They are covered with wax to retain moisture content. Does anyone know what I can treat this with once cut so that it doesn't crack, wharp, and become useless? I don't believe it has been kiln dried, as they would not guarantee me the moisture content. I have never used this material before, but thought about putting it on a knife I am donating to Pheasants Forever organization. Any info would be appreciated.
